Can someone please point me in the right direction for a weapon inventory that works! I’m sort of going for an inventory like system like most fps game have, I looked into the shooter game template did not see anything on this. Please Help
The more basic is an array of actors that hold the bp weapons.
Could you possibly specify on how I might go about doing this ? some documentation on array’s if possible, not quite familiar with array’s yet.
Hi,
Check out these:
Blueprint Arrays: https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Blueprints/UserGuide/Arrays/
C++ Arrays: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/cplusplus/cpp_arrays.htm
Also, here is a video about them by Epic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGtQmuav748
Good luck!
I have read the document link, the video also does not seem to tell me how I go about making the weapon inventory. This is the most difficult thing I have come across, and it is probably easy I just don’t know how to do it.
Hi,
Making an invetory system can be a complicated task depending on its complexity. If you are not familiar with the concept of arrays and how to use them, I would suggest you to try and learn the basics first. it will give you the knowledge to build any kind of inventory system you can imagine. In the meantime, if you are really interested in inventories, here is a tutorial series by Epic explaining the process of creating a simple inventory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4tltrLLVuQ&list=PLZlv_N0_O1gZalvQWYs8sc7RP_-8eSr3i
I would also suggest you to have a look on the tutorials on Unreal Engine’s youtube channel and in the docs, because all the answers to your question came up with a simple google search.
Good luck with your inventory!
